Tool Management

Unlock the potential between your tool store and CNC machine with ZOLLER's tool management system.

Increase the performance potential stored in your tool store with ZOLLER's holistic tool management. It combines four levels into one unit: Smart Cabinets (the ZOLLER smart tool cabinets), TMS Tool Management Solutions and WebTMS (software solutions), and numerous CAM interfaces (to third-party systems and data availability via the z.One database). It's tool management from a single source - and therefore unbeatably efficient.

Tool management improves productivity. It speeds up access to tools, shortens set-up times, facilitates production planning, supports purchasing, prevents excessive capital commitment and reduces machine downtime. ZOLLER tool management can reduce costs by 10% to 40% in each of these areas.

The benefits of data management with ZOLLER

Data reduces tool costs

Digital tool management with TMS Tool Management Solutions has been proven to reduce tool storage costs. There are tangible reasons for this:

  • Tool stock is transparent - only what is needed is purchased
  • Tool service life is optimally utilized
  • Precise planning of regrinding orders
  • Less tool wear because, for example, cutting data that has proven itself in practice can be documented

Production planning

ZOLLER's tool management provides tool data from the start to the end of the process.

Our interfaces transfer tool data from CAD/CAM systems, ERP systems and tool catalogs to the ZOLLER TMS Tool Management Solutions software.

Master data, storage location data, geometry measurement data, tool life - everything can be called up at any time for production planning.

Production planning

When tool data accompanies your processes, you achieve the best possible product and process quality.

Production quality

Tool management and tool data are the key to getting the most out of your investment in high-quality tools, grinding wheels, and machines.

Production quality

The more comprehensive the data set from the measurements, the more precise the statements about quality.

Order in the tool store

The z.One database and the TMS Tool Management Solutions software keep the tool data in a production facility in order.

This order is a prerequisite for consistent data availability in CAM-to-part processes.

Order in the tool store

Tools have their fixed place and all tool data can be called up.

Consistent processes

Your data accompanies you through all processes without bumps and stumbles. This is possible because ZOLLER has reliable and automated solutions for critical points such as data transfer or control-oriented data preparation.

Consistent processes

Unique tool identification

Process reliability

The µm-precise measuring and setting data from ZOLLER measuring technology makes a significant contribution to ensuring that process reliability remains at the highest level.

The »smile« and »venturion« tool presetting and measuring machines and all ZOLLER inspection machines are designed for data exchange in production.

You can display current geometry data on tools and grinding wheels at any time or transfer it directly to your CNC machines. With ZOLLER you can manufacture safely.
